Really..... I find that it makes no difference what you do, the hormones dictate that you start to grow hairs. I pluck mine. And shave them with a mini razor.

I think the Tappers left after the son got a government job (backroom, office, I think) and the daughter went on Celebs Go Dating (?)
The main problem with the UK version at the moment is the new groups. Those two girls (the really quite dumb ones, maybe edited though.. !) Add nothing to it. Joanna Lumleys mom is another one who adds nothing either. The Blackpool brother and sister did used to annoy me, but Iltheyre actually growing on me.
I watch the Aussie version and the groups are really good, and although they've lost two groups (2girls, who went on the Aussie Im A Celeb, and two married guys, who just left) they've been replaced with another two groups who've fitted in brilliantly, a group of 3 Aussie/Middle Easten people (guy, girl, brother-in-law, over excited British bulldog!) And an East Asian guy and girl (friends or brother and sister) they're all really vocal and funny.

I liked blonde Leeds girl quoting her sister not going to Slimming World.
"I don't want to pay ten pounds to be told I'm a fat bas**rd."
I know...think of all the dark chocolate digestive that would buy. 🍫
My brothers been mentioning that Eliott guy from Countdown. He said if he was on the show he'd walk off. Lol "You don't mind trying but what's the point. It's like running an amateur race and Usain Bolt turns up."
I wish they wouldn't have the same shows over and over. That's the third week in a row for GoT.

I'm hooked on the family with the big dogs: they're obviously much loved members of the family. "Dave, don't sit on me!" - and they always have a big plate of cakes on the table, but you don't see them eating any.

Yeah, I usual like their contributions. And they usually have cakes but sometimes chocolate bars. I think with the way the dogs jump about I'd have something with a wrapper! They are lovely, and they take an interest in the tv when other animals are on.

Reading that back, it sounds as if I meant the dogs don't eat the cakes! But ----- on reflection, I suppose I'm surprised that neither the humans nor the dogs eat any!!!

I’m sure one of the macarons (on Dave’s side) went missing........
Meanwhile, I’ve just remembered who Izzy and/or her sister from Leeds remind me of ...........Kellie Marie Tunstall.......I knew it was in there somewhere, and now it’s out.
I’m fond of nearly all the families now, but the Siddiqis and Dave remain my favourites.

Yes, the Siddiquis have really good conversations, and they make really on the ball comments. They seem to be a close family.
I also enjoy the interactions of the family with the mother who is always knitting.

I like the three brothers whose names all begin with T. They aren't on that much but they seem really nice guys. I also like the Siddiqis, the Michaels, the ones with the dogs, Jenny and Lee and the Welsh couple.
I don't much like Joanna Lumley, the two incredibly dumb girls, the brother and sister from Blackpool although they have improved quite a bit, and the family with the man in the checked pyjama bottoms.
I think Giles plays to the camera a bit too much nowadays.
I used to like the Tappers, it's a shame they left.

I don't much like Joanna Lumley, the two incredibly dumb girls.
I think these are pretty much the same just from different ends of the spectrum. She's posh but dim and they're not posh and dim. I still remember her asking her husband whether people really did eat food from tins, saying she thought that was only during the war. I bet her cook keeps the tins hidden!!!! However I do think that it is nice to see extremely posh people enjoying/or not enjoying the same shows are everyone else.
I like the Siddiqis too, could live without Giles.

The Malones with their dogs. The Blackpool brother and sister have grown on me more as the episodes have gone on as I didn't like them at all to begin with. The two Geordie girls don't really add anything and there's the two Leeds sisters who are similar. |

I still miss June and Leon.
My favourites are still Jenny and Lee.
I like the Welsh couple too.

I completely overlooked this so will either have to record the repeat or watch on the hub. It is on again next week but I don't know how many episodes there are.
